The colt, bred by Colby Marks, is the first foal out of the Proud Citizen mare Citizen by Day, who is a full sister to the graded stakes winning 2012 Kentucky Derby fourth-place finisher Went the Day Well. Citizen by Day's second dam is grade 2 winner and Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies (G1) runner-up Sweet Roberta, who is also the second dam of multiple grade 1 winner and sire Brody's Cause.

So glad to see that he is still thriving and covering (small books) of mares at his age. I also had no idea that Distorted Humor was covering 125+ mares at his age . Guess that's the difference between Adena and WinStar.

Also didn't know AA had two very serious bouts of colic, he really is a fighter. I hope him and Ghostzapper continue to have uneventful happy lives, they are two of my all time favourites.

~ Racing Post did a lovely article on Awesome Again still thriving at his age.

I enjoyed reading it but this part didn't make any sense to me, "There isn’t another stallion who has sired four Breeders’ Cup champions". Then later in the article they act like its some kind of record for a stallion.

He is a great stallion, don't understand the need to say he is the only one when he isn't.
